00:01:10,360 Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Hacker Public Radio with your host 13 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,360 Operator. 14 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,360 Today I have dumped out my new book bag. 15 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:22,160 I have returned a target's book bag like four times now and it doesn't have as many 16 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,720 poskets which is good but anyways I am going to be talking about my cell phone and how 17 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:33,200 I had to get it set back up and the struggles along the way and kind of reach out to 18 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,160 ask for how to reduce that pain next time around. 19 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:43,680 I had a Samsung S10E small little phone. 20 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:50,480 I loved it and it just started getting sluggish and I was due for a reset on Android and 21 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:57,480 I figured well if I do a reset I might get another year out of it and then I will 22 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:05,440 get a new phone because I think it was like 2017 when it came up so phones don't last 23 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:10,600 long like these too so I will ask if they have another phone line around the office 24 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:17,640 I will get a new one and I didn't really think about it at all at the time I should have 25 00:02:17,640 --> 00:02:23,440 probably stuck with my old one because I am an old fart and I am set in my ways. 26 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:33,920 So I have all these analog and nice analog fancy earbuds I am probably up to 1, 2, 3, 4, 27 00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:42,760 or 5, so it is probably 3 at least a fancier one, 60, 70, 80, 90 dollar range those 28 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:48,960 are as fancy as I will get and then I have various ones that I have collected over time 29 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,760 they are not very nice so I think my favorite ones are these west domes I don't know 30 00:02:54,760 --> 00:03:01,240 what brand they are W10s or something W10s W20s I think they are dual driver so before 31 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:06,160 I get more into that I could do a whole other show and I know what this name is yeah 32 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:12,440 W20s I would like them the most but I had to really shove those in my ear so they need 33 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:20,560 to custom ear plug for those you can take and it is like right on custom ear buds where 34 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:26,480 you mix two plastic together and you rub them together I cut the batch in half so you get 35 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:32,960 two headphone batches basically you get to chance to mess up I pretty much like those 36 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:40,440 they are nice see basically you mix them come count together you let it set see me 37 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,440 we are not editing this by the way 38 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,800 if you hear some crunchy sounds it is my chair now I have tried to fix it before this is a nice 39 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:54,480 I am all over the place this is a nice horn miller arrow chair I bought a new bottom 40 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:59,960 aftermarket bottom for it because the bottom part ripped out but if you do not have a chair 41 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:08,200 and you are in IT or still at please invest in a nice excuse me a nice chair when I 42 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:15,080 start talking is when I start yawning I got plenty of sleep last night let me try to get some 43 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,760 water gear so I don't yawning you put you to sleep anyways exciting stuff I am going to be talking 44 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:29,240 about my cell phone setup my book back setup and whatever notes tickles my fancy so I have 45 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:35,480 my bag here and as I am going through my bag of duplicate stuff I am going to talk about my 46 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:44,520 cell phone issues or cell phone setup so go to the bag here I have a USB duckie I guess I will go 47 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:50,120 through the bag real quick I am organizing my bag it got kind of an out of whack because too many 48 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:58,440 cables and switching from analog to USB-C to analog audio everything is all mixed up now 49 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:05,400 but this is a USB bass bunny from while it is originally from some other folks but 50 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:13,240 the popularized by hackvive basically it is a USB networking device with a storage attached to it 51 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,840 you can plug into a locked windows station and it will dump the password hash up that windows box 52 00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:24,040 and you can go crack it later so it is pretty terrifying piece of tech you can do all kinds of stuff 53 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:31,560 it is basically a responder set up a man in the middle of the tech from just plugging in a USB 54 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:41,480 device so it shows up as a wire device and a lot of laptops or devices will switch over to a wired 55 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:47,880 network when they see one and that is why this one is such a powerful there is no actual internet 56 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:53,880 on it it is just a local device I guess you could somehow set up multiple interfaces but anyways 57 00:05:53,880 --> 00:06:00,600 it is a local wired device when you plug it in I think and it switches over to that for for internet 58 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:05,000 and in that way you have all the traffic goes through the device and you can do man in the 59 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:11,800 middle of the text with it SNBB1 and don't bow hashes and stuff so that is a cool piece of tech 60 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:17,480 that goes in the front pouch so we are going to grab it here with a conference and got some of these 61 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:25,400 some of these little pretty printed hacker things from salt works which is a company that 62 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:32,440 sponsored the event pretty cool guys dual kinds of fun stuff here is a USB 63 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:41,480 or a HDMI display port to HDMI f adapter so if you have you want to plug in something HDMI 64 00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:47,720 or display port only have a display port then you can use that dongle to switch it 65 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:54,680 I don't want to put this on the port a USB-C charger it's kind of a USB 66 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:05,320 dongle you use them for switches so a USB-C to USB-C power and to USB ports looks like 67 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:12,280 one's a USB USB whatever and then it splits at HDMI so this is my portable I use it for my laptop 68 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:20,280 to do HDMI out and I also use it for the switch so when I'm traveling I can plug it into a thing 69 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:29,560 this is not anchor brand it's a rica so yeah that goes in the kind of USB device is 70 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:36,760 storage but place I keep it simple Dell wired mouse because I do not like wireless mice 71 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:44,280 so I put that in the bottom of one of my sections strangely enough I keep a toothbrush and a 72 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:49,960 deodorant at least so let's put our deodorant on it's on a 10 o'clock in the morning after 73 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:56,920 things giving so bear with me um so I've got deodorant I usually put that in the front pouch 74 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,040 but they're not really enough room for it now so it's going in kind of in the bottom 75 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:09,560 what also I have here I have a myriad of these Jabra or no Pelican Pelican no the guys that make USB 76 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:14,840 hits at Plantronics and they're numbered I've labeled out a number printer because I had two of them 77 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:21,720 and the coworker stepped on one and I kept losing them so I had like I had two or three of them 78 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:27,720 at some point and then I got two more so I have five and it's not just a total mess so these are 79 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:34,040 Plantronics USB things they've they're showing there where it's some want to say these are six 80 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:38,760 years old now they need new batteries and I probably won't get new batteries for them because they are 81 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:46,680 the plastic is deteriorating for the earpiece so that's no fun um here is a old style only key regular 82 00:08:46,680 --> 00:08:56,360 only key um Password Idol it's a little bit different than your um what do you call these guys 83 00:08:57,560 --> 00:09:03,240 your UB keys is real popular um you can store up to 12 passwords on this guy um this is all 84 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,120 the traditional only key the new duo is great because you don't have to because this only key sticks 85 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,000 out so if you have a laptop and you you're walking by something or you clip it it will go crunch 86 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,960 and you'll have a bad day which I have not done before but when the duo came out it's a small 87 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:22,200 form factor and it barely sticks out of the side um it's only a problem if you have very tiny 88 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:27,960 fingers but it has soft keys on it just like the only key to it is over I'm lying down like 89 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:33,240 green so only key duo is great that's very expensive um the problem with any kind of key based 90 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:39,400 authentication is guess what you had to buy to and I went to an event where the Google gave away 91 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:45,800 a thing and I don't know if it actually had to in there but it might have been sort of a scam because 92 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:52,120 if someone gives you a USB download you're guaranteed a USB security download you use it you're 93 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:58,920 guaranteed buy another one because that's what you can't have one USB download so here's number one 94 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:05,400 of my plan promise so see if we can find all of them I got five and one so we're missing two three 95 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:17,640 and four here is a retractable this octopus cable for USB-C USB to USB-C USB micro and Apple which 96 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:24,120 I don't need Apple but I needed micro and USB-C the problem with this is when I bought it I just 97 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:29,640 thought and I'm pretty sure I made sure that it was a data cable but it is not a data cable so this 98 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:35,640 cable might not actually go in my book back so instead of this I built possible numbers owners 99 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,800 of course prescription those go in my little pot and pots and the front tweezers 100 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:48,040 toothbrush and in toothpaste I actually have two toothbrushes one of these effects it's supposed to go 101 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:57,080 in my cart so I'll put that one in my pocket that will go out bound the microphone I'm using is a 102 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:05,000 Samsung something out of there Samsung go like it's pretty slick it's got a omnidirectional thing 103 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:11,880 and whatever so that will go back and let the bag at some point again I had the W Weston 104 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:21,640 Weston W20's here but I don't worry those as much because you gotta shove them way down in 105 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,800 your ears okay they have a good sound but you just have to show them now I have another one of 106 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:30,520 these retractable things because I bought three I refused to buy any cables but I finally broke 107 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:37,880 down about these because I like the retractable and I guess I'll have to keep one of them in my 108 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:43,560 book bag because they're too convenient for charging I don't always need data but I always need charging 109 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:53,160 these are another headphone brand don't even know the logo looks like a looks like an LG or it's 110 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:58,600 actually two headphones of the ear buds up and down I only know the brand of these but you are good 111 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:05,400 I made the custom ear buds with those so you let it set you put a paper towel or a towel on your 112 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:11,560 mouth while it's setting and you shove it in your ears just look for custom ear buds and then when 113 00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:18,840 it's done you kind of get an exacto knife or a straight razor or whatever and cut off the end of 114 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:24,360 the earbud and then until you expose the actual speakers so these are custom ear buds I like 115 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:30,120 that a lot I still like my original ones that I made probably five years ago now and you start to turn 116 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:39,880 around here is a USB-C cable which is a USB-C data cable which I need so that's going to go into 117 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:49,320 the USB slot my speakers or my headphones are too big so they go in a little compartment a bigger 118 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:55,480 compartment I always bring umbrella which I think I did what's in my backpack when I was doing 119 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:09,560 this is a clone Winproof K-O-L-U-N-B Winproof umbrella so I put that at the bottom 120 00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:16,520 the very bottom of my leg barely fits in this guy actually it's like trying to have a 121 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:26,600 rucksack I big I don't know how many thousands of big old beefy 20s 226000 122 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:33,800 million battery back those in this dumps were all the USB stuff goes you need to you have to have 123 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:40,120 a battery I keep a comb in my backpack just in case that goes in the front because it's small enough 124 00:13:40,680 --> 00:13:48,040 I usually keep toiletries and very small electronics in the front pouch stuff like two picks 125 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:59,720 I have a Windows 10 UEFI boot USB stick I try to keep stuff to do tech support in my book bag at 126 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:08,280 all times I still have this vision tech 120 gig pocket SSD I really should update this this has been 127 00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:16,360 run on two or three years old now so if I need to pop some boxes do some Linux stuff do some 128 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:24,840 hacking I use the Pintesting Framework instead of Cali or whatever not the biggest fan of that stuff so 129 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:30,840 I have another USB micro or mini I don't know which one the bigger the bigger fat it's 130 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:39,080 so this goes to a USB hub it looks like so I actually don't even need this anywhere that 131 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:44,600 goes in my USB box I would outside that I get some more toothpaste two tubes of toothpaste 132 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:52,840 I do the same thing on the OS one I buy it's little things like toiletries or whatever 133 00:14:53,160 --> 00:15:01,240 you need so I will buy like five tubes of toothpaste and like five tubes of 134 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,680 neosporne things like that because I can never find anything actually here's a third here's a third 135 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:14,360 tube my wife is actually asking where all the toothpaste is I think it's all in my look bag 136 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,000 yeah I have three tubes of toothpaste in my book bag so that's a little bit 137 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:22,680 zealous so I'll keep the two small ones that are almost empty and give her back one of these 138 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:28,280 guys because she's has that six cents unlike me of ADD and I can't tell you that I've got three 139 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:35,480 two to two paste in my book bag what I had to buy was a USB C splitter for power and 140 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:46,120 auxiliary no auxiliary audio for the car so you just plug in it's actually better I should have 141 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:53,720 used it all the time but when I've lost my auxiliary port my auxiliary port for my phone I was 142 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:58,920 quite depressed but then I realized if you get a splitter then you only have to plug in USB C and 143 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:06,280 no other analog so it's actually nicer and I pooped on it forever because I'm old set my ways 144 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:14,680 but I don't like having to have a dongle sticking out of my phone if you ever get a dongle or any kind 145 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,440 of attachment for any kind of portable device or anything you're going to put in your pocket 146 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:25,320 I'll always get a 90 degree angle so this is this brand for a USB C to a stereo 147 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:39,400 a jack on your jack is a 45 or 4.5 or whatever they call it to 28 it's a KO Kupu K-O-O-P-O-O-P-A-O possibly 148 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:49,480 so it's a it's a USB C and then it's 90 degree angle and then it goes to a 149 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:58,120 regular headphone jack the problem is that some of my nicer well when I say nicer I mean this is 150 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:07,240 my 10 year old Sony XB these are my favorite XB to dual driver Sony's they are also 90 degree so 151 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:14,600 when it looks a bit like a puzzle when I plug in my phone because it comes out and then goes 90 152 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:19,560 degrees and then goes up and then goes 90 degrees so it's kind of weird and this one I fixed before 153 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:29,640 it's quite a mess you can get 90 degree angle repair kits for your stereo for your headphones but 154 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:35,320 I would do that excuse me I will not be repairing any more headphones I will always buy 155 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:43,000 um XLR based modular headphones so even when you do have issues with the wires 156 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,440 all you have to do is disconnect it and buy more XLR cables I don't know why I haven't done that in 157 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:55,000 the past 10 years um so my I think the west the western ones or whatever the W20s 158 00:17:56,120 --> 00:18:02,200 are the modular XLR ones I will from now on and forever buy those because they are modular 159 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,600 and you can swap out the cables once they go bad the drivers rarely ever go bad 160 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:13,480 what goes bad is the cable right and this took me this 90 degree angle with the kit I 161 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,400 to buy it I had to buy a kit I got three different two different kinds of 90 degree angle 162 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:22,440 repair kits from Molly Bot all you express one of them was just a dumpster fire this other 163 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:28,360 one is big and bulky it's very square um and of course you know since you you're not a tiny 164 00:18:28,360 --> 00:18:32,760 robot you have to buy big parts um and big parts don't necessarily look right and it's like a 165 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:37,480 90 degree angle and it's like hard to bend it sticks out way and I had to like multiple layers of shrink 166 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:43,400 ring as this it was an hour job just to repair these guys so I will never ever buy none you know 167 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:48,520 XLR whatever they call them based module or connections so you can just swap the wires out 168 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,800 I will never buy these again oh excuse me so this goes the way it goes fast 169 00:18:54,680 --> 00:19:01,080 but yeah the USB-C 90 degree angle that goes in my front pouch because it's small my work badge 170 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,480 always goes it back in my book bag if it's not on my neck it goes in my book bag 171 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:12,520 that's my rule I have a this I take with a switch this is a four port um 172 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:20,840 power outlet outlets to go for um it's a compact little fold up it right the cord wraps around 173 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:25,240 it's the very short cord it wraps around itself I've had this guy for a thousand years 174 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:32,280 I've used it a lot so people will complain the way I was only one usually one's port here 175 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:37,560 I'm using it cool I'm not pull out this and boom yeah you know three extra ports 176 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,680 or at least one extra port actually has a reset button which is kind of odd 177 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,640 I don't know if that goes in the bottom it actually goes with my switch so that supposed to go 178 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:54,040 to my switch because I use that more portably than on the road stuff and then a nice still 179 00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:59,400 adapter for work for travel so that goes in one of the pouches 180 00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:02,040 I'm hand sanitizer goes on a side pouch 181 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:10,280 spare key I keep my spare key in my book bag so that way if I ever lose my keys from and I'm 182 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:16,520 traveling I can at least have a backup plan that if I have my book bag I can get my car again 183 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:22,840 newsborne pain relief I don't think this is the address stay away from the cream 184 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,640 based one I don't like it so this time your mind knows we'll get real dry and sometimes I 185 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:32,360 have newsborne up in here oh look we found number three no number three plan 186 00:20:32,360 --> 00:20:36,360 toxic sets it has a headset from a different piece I have an entire bag 187 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:44,520 I mean this is a sandwich size bag almost full of ear buds and different kinds of ear buds 188 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:49,800 and connectors and whatever but I always end up using usually going custom if you're not 189 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:56,520 gonna go custom with the mix the silicon mix or whatever I would go with a phone like it's 190 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:01,000 you know the ear plugs you put in your your your and you twist them you shove in your ear and 191 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:06,520 they expand the expanding your phone the phone based ones I would go with those and you want 192 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:13,960 to get a small sit because they're pretty tight but depending on your headphone manufacturer 193 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:19,960 they're aftermarket aftermarket things for them but I keep all these connectors because 194 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:26,040 you never know when you lose one or someone like comes off and they're you know you collect enough 195 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:31,000 of them you'll have enough to support and you kind of divide so that's what this is on here it's like 196 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:37,400 a little right angle in your ear a little waffle the bit that sticks out like I don't know what they call 197 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:44,600 attention-based thing so that's number three in plane tronics I try to keep them charged at all times 198 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:50,120 I have a charge master nine thousand which is a twenty port USB charger a thirteen port USB charger 199 00:21:50,120 --> 00:21:56,760 some crazy like that and it's in a drawer along with every single other type of charger that I have 200 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:05,640 that is a color coded so I have electric cable colored electric tape on different types of 201 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,480 connections so if it's a because they're all black like all the adapters are black right so you're 202 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:16,600 trying to you know you're in a dark drawer trying to find a USB micro plug you'll never find it 203 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:21,800 so I started taping the USB micro stuff so I at least know most of them are easy to find but the 204 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:27,320 USB micro that I can never find them so I'm like I'm a headset here's a little ego risk is p32 205 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:35,960 it's an ESP 32 on your wrist it looks like they double stuck the sticker on here oh this is 206 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:42,440 like a sticker you can put on something on anyway this was my attempt I bought a old Samsung Galaxy S5 207 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:52,200 whatever watch and then I bought this to try to work on my own assistant AI of myself 208 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,080 or some kind of way so I don't have to scream in my pocket to talk to Google or to make a note 209 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:02,760 and this thing the battery life on this is awful it's a it's a we call it 210 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,400 proof of concept kind of tech board I mean it looks cute it looks like an Apple watch but the 211 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:12,760 battery life is so awful with it if you had the wireless on it's not really gonna but ever so that's 212 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:21,160 going to be in the giveaway pile I can barely get it up to here are some backup um backup 213 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:26,360 crappy headphones so just in case I'm on a call or something or I need to join I'm going to get 214 00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:34,440 rid of these and put them in a trash can probably these are sold they don't fit in my ears or anything 215 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:39,320 so we've got a choice I've been carrying them around having them as a backup at work but it's 216 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:46,200 not even worth it I keep plastic bags um if you're not for like me you had to hear 217 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:51,320 thrifty like me you'll keep plastic bags in your book bag or Tupperware in your car 218 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:58,840 so when you travel or you go to an event or go to a parents house or whatever and you get food 219 00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:04,440 it's not although it's not attractive you can put in your leftovers in a plastic bag 220 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:13,560 a lot of people use Tupperware or whatever else and you know it's it's socially acceptable but honestly 221 00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:18,920 if you get some like even gown size on these are freezer bags not that's a big 222 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:23,320 count size bag but they're freezer bags just strong and you can just put your leftovers in there it 223 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:29,560 doesn't matter me like form over function or function over form right um the pretty much wraps it 224 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:38,440 up with the book bag I wanted to talk about my setup here with the phone um oh good okay so we're still 225 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:43,080 good we're 23 minutes in a while if you're still here on we're into a lot of Android 226 00:24:44,120 --> 00:24:51,000 gonna see if I can record in the background test test test test test test and see if it's actually working 227 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:56,360 okay so it's the first time using whatever this is I think it's actually a Samsung voice recorder 228 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:02,200 which I don't know why but I have Samsung phones oh my as well stick with something that I know 229 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:11,240 is not a thousand percent malware um so we'll go through the process um usually it ends up being 230 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:17,560 I've figured out that you have to get your two factor authentication copied over first so we use duo 231 00:25:18,360 --> 00:25:23,640 and Microsoft authenticator and I use Google Authenticator so I use Google Authenticator for for 232 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:31,320 personal Microsoft for work and duo for work so that was the first priority was taking the life 233 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:38,040 phone the old phone and copying over the identities to the new phone which is kind of scary 234 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:45,720 because duo let's you back up your stuff to Google a personal Google account which that's not really 235 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:52,760 great and then Google Authenticator let's you back up Google Authenticator to itself which is also 236 00:25:52,760 --> 00:26:01,080 a terrible idea so once I did do that I disabled it I disabled it and duo so you can't back up 237 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:07,480 restore backup from cloud or whatever to cloud backup whatever um that's just that sounds like a 238 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:15,160 horrible idea I'm so anyways um the first thing I did was the authenticator stuff 239 00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:21,640 I realized that they moved off of a multi-user tenant like a different user mode 240 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:26,760 the work profile and user profile they moved away from that and now it's just one profile because 241 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:33,240 the way they had it set up the email was awful um we didn't have outlook but we were Microsoft shop so 242 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:39,000 it was kind of a dumpster fire so now it's everything's on one platform but they locked down third-party 243 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:45,080 applications so now you can't run a third-party APK it's I am fine with that except for 244 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:53,480 dns66 is a adbacher I use for third-party adbocking ads so now I get banners with you know you know 245 00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:59,640 a scandily-clad women on some of the applications I use um so that's kind of discerning 246 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:07,880 things I have on here uh bandcamp uh let's see cali google calendar now there's a difference between 247 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,440 the calendar that comes with Samsung and the google calendar so you want to be aware of you know 248 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,600 calendars the same calendar calendar calendar no you want actual google calendar make sure you're 249 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:22,520 just enabling all the other Samsung contacts and Samsung calendar and Samsung clock and Samsung 250 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,360 this anything that has a google name um you want to make sure you're using the right one 251 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:34,040 on no-co controller copilot GPS is offline maps so if you're ever in the middle of nowhere you'll 252 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:41,480 have a cell phone signal you can use copilot to get offline maps I use beeper now and try to use beeper 253 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:46,600 for multi-checkline protocol it's still in the works they're eventually probably going to charge 254 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:54,200 quick right out it's free you sign up we'll wait about a month um i use it for discord and 255 00:27:54,200 --> 00:28:00,120 slack and linked in uh it's more for direct messages right now um it's kind of wonky for a chat so 256 00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:06,440 if you somebody at signs you you will get peamed it'll show like an ad sign and you know that someone 257 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,360 talking to you if you get a DM you'll definitely know because it will show up as a new thing 258 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:15,720 well to somebody who responds to the thread like say you ask a question and somebody responds to the 259 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,440 thread then um you won't see that so what i've been doing is i've been typing in my question 260 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:29,480 and then just hoping that the hoping that i don't miss their response um disc usage is great one word 261 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:36,440 let you see the space what's using all the space on your entire device not just one specific part of it 262 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:46,200 Google Docs Google Drive do a excel comes with the Microsoft screen i guess um 365 263 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,760 family link i use for the kid he's getting old enough to where he's starting to bypass stuff 264 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:57,080 Firefox nightly i did do a video on youtube for that if you search free load one on one 265 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:04,280 and uh Firefox ad blocking you'll get two videos one of them will tell you how to use 266 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:11,320 Firefox with any plugin and just and it just basically you turn on developer mode and you assign a 267 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:21,560 a plugin ID or like a plugin repo repository ID with whatever you want to use so i use my own 268 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:28,360 repository with different three or four different plugins and it it's kind of complicated that's 269 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:39,240 by the video for it now g y gly clocks like x g l y c o x is a graphic equalizer for android 270 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:43,480 so if it's too loud to quiet not enough space too much base i mean get a little bit more out of 271 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:50,520 uh whatever g no get our x of course if you don't not prescriptions uh or uh yeah prescriptions 272 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:56,760 you can get use get our x they get a good coupon deal and my pace is all we'll uh honor good 273 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:05,000 or x they'll hold them due though the ink bird app which is for my stupid barbecue wireless 274 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:11,560 piece of garbage juice SSH actually has a cloud based backup um if you pay their $2 for that 275 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:17,560 you can uh backup all your profiles in the cloud and you also can have the option to back up the 276 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:23,560 identities which includes passwords so if you don't want to backup your passwords for your SSH 277 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:29,320 stuff um you can choose to do that but it will least back up to profiles so i don't have to set up 278 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:35,800 you know my website my home profile my plex home profile my local profile it just backs all 279 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:44,600 up uh the cougar app for my medications uh google lens for text is text uh text uh OCR 280 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:50,920 I use it for OCR stuff um last pass of course um they've all been breached so don't hate 281 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:57,480 um google meet meant mobile um for you know looking at billing and stuff like that 282 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:03,160 misnotifications reminder that it's misnotifications i think called reminder 283 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:08,760 misnotifications reminder yeah um i use that for repeated notifications for

00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:29,400 wallet phone uh phone if you put the button on a tile it can get your phone so that works 305 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,840 good that way if you can't find your phone you can use it to find your phone um i've got one 306 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:42,120 on my wallet my phone my keys uh my water thing i think i have one uh for my child if he is 307 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:46,840 around or uh goes about so i can just hit that and it'll start beeping and i can have him come 308 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:51,720 he's 10 years old now he's getting a little slow before but it works great because i just hit 309 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:57,640 the button he's like yeah because if i yell for him he won't answer or he'll ignore me or 310 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,440 whatever it is but i've hit the tile button he stops everything he's doing and starts running towards 311 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,640 me and it's like dad um so that's kind of interesting um let's see what else tile not too much 312 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:12,840 year time to leave um google used to have a support for this but it would tell you when you're 313 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:17,320 supposed to leave for something so you give it like a 15 minute um google maps used to have 314 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:21,240 this feature but they probably got too many people jumping up and down because they're missing 315 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:26,120 um but it tells you based on like the traffic patterns and stuff when you're supposed to leave for 316 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:33,560 things that's pretty cool it's saved me i would say it saves me maybe once a month once every other 317 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,480 month from missing a meeting or being a little bit late for something that i would normally 318 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:51,560 black or uh a torque TO UTORQ UE that's ODB cheap ODB sensor i have for my car 319 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,920 that i use for just you know clearing codes and getting basic codes and trying to 320 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:03,240 figure stuff out myself google translate i got twitch for uh break-sec security that break-sec 321 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:10,600 BR-A-K-E-sec security spot guess those into um Uber app um always keep that up to date because 322 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,560 if you're credit cards expires or something and you're trying to get a Uber and you have to 323 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:17,400 like put on a credit card and spend 20 minutes trying to get the app activated um that's what 324 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:23,400 took me so long with the phone stuff is that i want to sing it took me all day all day i spent 325 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,320 on my phone trying to get it set up and even then there's a little bits and pieces of stuff i 326 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,720 just set up but i'd log in you know so it's last pass and then set up you know everything 327 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:37,080 everything that once authentication which is every app now um the problem is it my google voice 328 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:42,040 is the app name is voice which starts with the V which is at the end of all of the app so by the 329 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,760 time i got to google voice i had missed the text and a call from my wife because i was supposed to 330 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:54,520 do dinner and take the kit to a uh scouts more scouts yeah well we'll start scouts thing so 331 00:35:55,480 --> 00:36:01,480 on that trip to the kind of annoying and my whole life is run by google voice and google 332 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:07,720 hounders and work stuff uh i have yelp only just to look for restaurants that are near me um 333 00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:15,720 you know you get burned a few times um land zoom for work stuff too that's pretty much it 334 00:36:15,720 --> 00:36:22,760 we'd normally have dns66 and i would also normally have like uh some kind of after market 335 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:28,440 youtube app to download youtube videos but i can't do that um so i need to find a way to download 336 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:36,280 youtube videos without a third party abk um i guess you could use to uh youtube vl with a terminal 337 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:41,400 emulator which that doesn't sound like a bad idea actually not think about it um you can also 338 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:47,160 probably launch fabk's within the terminal emulator third party there might be some 339 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,760 chenanigans you can do around that if you do like a terminal emulator and then we'll launch an 340 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:56,520 abk inside of that terminal emulator um maybe that's the way to escape out i doubt that would work 341 00:36:57,240 --> 00:37:02,600 but i wouldn't be surprised at what because if you block their party abk's you're not blocking 342 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:09,800 arbitrary code execution right um fundamentally if you're not using application whitelisting then 343 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:15,560 you're you're you're you're allowed to launch whatever you want to launch so if one program is 344 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:22,120 allowed to execute another program then you you're taught new win um so there might be a way to do 345 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:27,240 it with a terminal emulator to launch third party uh in terms of the application so i will look into 346 00:37:27,240 --> 00:37:32,440 that and do a show if i figured out otherwise you have to downgrade your phone um brood it and then 347 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:37,080 upgrade uh you have to use a third party wrong or something which that is not going to go well with 348 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:42,680 with work people anyways um got through six minutes on what you guys go um i know i've been all over 349 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:48,440 the place for this but i figured i'd record something while i'm going through my book bag and uh 350 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:55,320 figurine stuff out uh don't have any upcoming projects here uh but uh yeah jambree if you're 351 00:37:55,320 --> 00:38:01,560 into android emulation testing pin testing stuff um check out my jambree if you want to contribute 352 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:06,840 or help out um or be on hosts or co-host or whatever um i knew looking for people 353 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:13,240 looking for android development ninjas uh android uh fantastic ninjas uh to help me um my next steps 354 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:24,600 appreciate it and hope you guys have a good one you have been listening
